    Someone who thinks my city should be run by representatives elected via proportionally appointed council members and someone who thinks it should be run by direct democracy might be political opponents but not enemies. Someone who thinks marginalized people should be criminalized or killed is my enemy, not my political opponent. Someone who thinks we should aggressively harm poor people in order to marginally increase the bottom lines of billionaires is also my enemy, not my political opponent.

    This "everyone has good ideas and we can all disagree!" attitude is naive bullshit.
